Tim Graham a0553d1a7c [1.8.x] Prevented some test commands from needlessly running system checks.
This is a performance optimization and also fixes test errors with the
upcoming merge of contrib tests into tests/. The tests failed on MySQL
because the models with GeometryField were being checked but the
non-GIS MySQL backend didn't know how to handle them.

README.rst

Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development
and clean, pragmatic design. Thanks for checking it out.

All documentation is in the "docs" directory and online at
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/. If you're just getting started,
here's how we recommend you read the docs:

* First, read docs/intro/install.txt for instructions on installing Django.

* Next, work through the tutorials in order (docs/intro/tutorial01.txt,
  docs/intro/tutorial02.txt, etc.).

* If you want to set up an actual deployment server, read
  docs/howto/deployment/index.txt for instructions.

* You'll probably want to read through the topical guides (in docs/topics)
  next; from there you can jump to the HOWTOs (in docs/howto) for specific
  problems, and check out the reference (docs/ref) for gory details.

* See docs/README for instructions on building an HTML version of the docs.

Docs are updated rigorously. If you find any problems in the docs, or think
they should be clarified in any way, please take 30 seconds to fill out a
ticket here: https://code.djangoproject.com/newticket

To get more help:

* Join the #django channel on irc.freenode.net. Lots of helpful people hang out
  there. Read the archives at http://django-irc-logs.com/.

* Join the django-users mailing list, or read the archives, at
  https://groups.google.com/group/django-users.

To contribute to Django:

* Check out https://www.djangoproject.com/community/ for information about
  getting involved.

To run Django's test suite:

* Follow the instructions in the "Unit tests" section of
  docs/internals/contributing/writing-code/unit-tests.txt, published online at
  https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/writing-code/unit-tests/#running-the-unit-tests
